Indeed, I wish there were, because I far prefer trains to planes and driving.
Too true, because as you mentioned the trains from Germany to Italy in Europe, the US and even up here in Canada, you would take a plane for that distance. However, trains may not be as fast in the actual traveling time, however the frustration that can amount while taking a plan can be hell.
This is of course why we need more politicians like Eliot Spitzer in this article. For those of you too lazy to click links, Spitzer filed a suit against Intermix Software in relation to the spyware they were releasing.
This is just a step in covering a huge conspiracy for companies such as Lavasoft to gain money.
First step, you infect computers with spyware and adware. Second step, release a free anti-spyware application, however make sure it won't capture all the spyware. Third step is where it gets evil; release a 'professional' version of your software to catch those desperate customers who are willing to pay $39.95 in an attempt to clean up their computer. Once they have paid, release new spyware which can only be caught by your seeming competitor's software, but in the background, make shady deals with them so that each anti-spyware application catches a few spyware programs, but of course, not all.
"People switch to Linux because it's Free."
How can you say people switch to Linux because it is free? The only people I know who use Linux are those who are either fed up of Windows or prefer to get more hands on with their OS environment. And as the only people I know who use Linux have at least a higher knowledge of computers (In general), it would not be that hard for them to come into a 'free' copy of Windows.
I own a GameBoy Advance SP, however would never personally purchase a DS. Why? Because Nintendo has never been big on third party companies developing games and such for the addons which Nintendo creates. Thus expansion was limited to what the third party game creators choose to do. Hopefully the PSP will allow for greater expansion in a handheld device. If they do release new innovations, there is nothing to stop Sony from taking over Nintendo's dominance in the handheld market.
